Skiing

The Ski School Director in "Aspen Extreme" told T.J. Burke that "Skiing's the easy part,"  Implying that everything in T.J.'s life that isn't skiing is difficult.  This includes, but is not limited to: hanging with Robin Winterbottom, fighting with Dex, and banging that weird looking rich chick.   It takes all kinds of skiers to make a sport and a lifestyle.  Nobody's got it right so far, but I think Glen Plake is the closest that I've seen.  Beyond his annoying voice and strange appearance lies the most true skier in every sense of the word.  His Down Home Tour where he and his wife travel to small, unknown ski areas and rip around with the kids and the locals is the most creative, productive, and philanthropic ideas around.
